Dominant defense: Committing just 72 errors through the season, the Mariners had the second-best defense in the majors and were tied for first (with the Chicago White Sox) in fielding percentage at .988. And while shortstop Brendan Ryan (pictured) may not have had the best season at the plate, where he hit .194, he led all MLB shortstops with 27 defensive runs saved.
